June 4

Module:ShowMath

Unused, unnecessary Wikidata module. {{3x|p}}ery (talk) 20:48, 4 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Can we keep the module? While it's not used yet in production it's a nice demo how math formulae can be incorporated from Wikidata and be used in infoboxes or similar templates. --Physikerwelt (talk) 21:12, 4 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Module:Shogiboard

Unused, redundant to Module:Shogi diagram {{3x|p}}ery (talk) 20:44, 4 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The template this claims to implement is already implemented in Wikitext and does not need to be luafied. {{3x|p}}ery (talk) 20:40, 4 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Template:H:title

Instances of use are either abominations violating MOS:ACCESS ("Do not use techniques that require interaction to provide information, such as tooltips or any other "hover" text") (as in here, or here) or abbreviations in which case {{abbr}} should be used, as in here. Maybe allow outside of mainspace, but definitely not in articles. Galobtter (pingó mió) 19:30, 4 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Template:HK Metalurgs Liepaja roster

HK Metalurgs Liepaja folded in 2013 which means a roster is no longer required MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 15:49, 4 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Template:2014 NPSL season by team

Contains no links, and in any case none of the redlinks would ever be created as they all fail WP:GNG and WP:NSEASONS 21.colinthompson (talk) 14:49, 4 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Tremors Release Dates

Incorrect use of a navbox, as it doesn't navigate anything. However no point in converting this to another format, as it's pretty fancruft-y. --woodensuperman 11:29, 4 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Nepali Actress

Completely redundant to {{Cinema of Nepal}}. I have replaced all transclusions of this template with that one. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 07:26, 4 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Fb cl header H&A

Propose merging Template:Fb cl header H&A with Module:Sports table/WDL.

Template:Taiwan Province, People's Republic of China

WP:BIDIRECTIONAL The main entry did not form a bi-directional connection, nor should it account for Taiwan’s cheaper Zenk0113 (talk) 11:57, 26 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Module:SBN

Unnecessary and too specific lua module, can be implemented in Wikitext with a call to Module:String. {{3x|p}}ery (talk) 00:14, 4 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep as the module author. This would be more awkward to do with Module:String, as you would need two calls to the match function instead of the one call to string.match that the current version uses. The error-handling code would also have to be replaced with multiple #if parser functions (maybe necessitating more match calls). Even for short modules, this kind of logic is more readable in Lua, because we can use variables, and because we can indent the code without having to worry about the extra whitespace changing the output. Delete I just checked, and the module isn't actually used, which makes my argument moot. If anyone starts using SBNs we can always reinstate it. — Mr. Stradivarius ♪ talk ♪ 11:09, 4 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Module:SHA2

Under what circumstance would a Wikipedia page want to calculate a SHA2 hash as part of parsing? {{3x|p}}ery (talk) 00:12, 4 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Module:Revision

Unnecessary lua module, can be implemented in Wikitext (and is, via {{diff}}) {{3x|p}}ery (talk) 00:06, 4 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
